New Edy heads, poor quality control what to do

"I agree to some extent Moper,but they are touted as bolt ons.
I can't see haveing to spend more to have them checked
and corrected to gain peace of mind."

That's precisely what I mean. It's the marketing. Not the price or the quality control IMO. I look at it like this... My Dad's a retired Pratt & Whitney engineer. There are certain airlines and planes he won't fly on, because he knows things that in the past they did to hurt reliability and safety. I'm ignorant of his concerns and I've told him int he past to drop the issue because it makes me uncomfortable. The fact that I, or some machinists feel "ready to run" is not good enough, is the result of losing the ignorance. By my definition of quality, Indy's assemblies suck worse, as do Hughes/Aerohead, Dart, Brodix, TFS, and MP. It's still my opinion the end justifies the means. But it's all subjective and I can understand other's feelings. There are a couple companies I refuse to use just because of thier treatment of a situation I had in the past.
